Under Bar Size, you can type or select the Height and Width of the bar size. 

Height
The height of a bar code is the distance between the top of the bars and the bottom of 

the bars. The minimum height is .015 inch and the maximum is 1.25 inches. You can 

type or select the bar code height from the drop down list. 

Width
The bar width, the physical thickness of the narrowest element in a bar code, ranges 

from 0.010 to 0.050 inches. Type or select the width from the list.

Any Width
When the bar width is unknown, you can select this check box to allow the 

application to automatically determine the bar width as it searches for potential bar 

codes.

2 to 1 Ratio
Some bar code types support an optional ratio between the narrowest element and the 

larger elements in the code. In a 2 to 1 ratio, the width of the largest elements is two 

times larger than the narrowest element. For example, if the width of the narrowest 

element is .20 inches, the width of the largest elements will be .40 inches. 

The ratio setting only has meaning for Codabar, Code 39, Code 93, Interleaved 

2 of 5, and Linear 2 of 5.
